The Simple Things: an anthology

Lottie Storey August 3, 2016

The Simple Things offers readers a simple promise: ‘to celebrate the things that matter most’. Each issue is a monthly reminder of how good life can be when you remember to take the time to live it well. In this 256-page anthology, we’ve curated our favourite features from the first three years on growing, cooking, making and sharing time with friends and family.

We like to think of it as a ‘handbook for happiness’.

Featuring the best of the magazine, published 26 September 2016 by Firefly Books. Pre-ordered copies will be mailed out as close to this date as possible and each book will be signed by the editor, Lisa Sykes. 

£19.95 + free UK p&p* Order here

The Simple Things

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
